Jim I’m confused myself now...my review date is showing as 1995 property built in 2000. As you know Jim I usually do my own but in 2016 I was caught up doing Probate for my late fathers Estate,so I had my 2015 return to be paid in 2016 done by Spanish Tax Forms who initially sent my completed forms back to me using the multiplier 1.1%. A few days later they contacted me to advise that unfortunately it had come to light that there had been an error in the calculation, here is what they informed me: The background is that there was a change used to the formula to calculate the tax in your municipal area. This is because cadastral values in San Fulgencio have not been reassessed for more than 10 years. This change to the formula, introduced for 2015, was not reflected in our original calculation and, as a result, there is a further XX € to pay.
The Citizens Advice website shows this on their website : The rate that applies to work out the tax base: with effect from 1st January 2015 providing catastral value was revised within the previous 10 years, then 1.1%, otherwise 2%.
My neighbours have theirs done by a Solicitor in Spain, I’m sure theirs changed from 1.1% to 2%, as I recall them commenting on the increased amount they had to pay.
I googled ‘Form 210 instructions’ and noticed that the link to the pdf was dated September 2011
